Why a starved liver has less glycogen then a well fed liver?
The blood-glucose level begins to drop several hours after a meal, leading to a decrease in insulin secretion and a rise in glucagon secretion; glucagon is secreted by the α cells of the pancreas in response to a low blood-sugar level in the fasting state. In same way,insulin signals the fed state, this fed condition leads to the secretion of insulin, which is one of the two most important regulators of fuel metabolism,the secretion of the hormone insulin by the β cells of the pancreas is stimulated by glucose. It stimulates glycogen synthesis in both muscle and the liver and suppresses gluconeogenesis by the liver.

What happens if you lose part of your liver?
If you lose part of your liver the body needs it so much it will actually grow back.
Where does the digestive tract begin?
Well, I don't know If I really understand the question but the digestion begins when the food enters the mouth, that is when teeth start crushing (mechanical), and the tongue forms the food into a ball, and salaiva covers the food and softens it, so it can go through the oesophagus.
I hope I answered your question. =)
Is compaction part of the digestive function?
Compaction is a part of the digestive function which limits the size of food so it can more readily be broken down and transported. It plays a large part in the intestines where it squeezes the water and nutrients from the food.
How do you help maintain highlands in My sims?
'well first you have to find all the spots that have no grass...then you have spots left over so you wait a day and she will have more items. Now is the hard part and im still stuck on it,you see the part were it tells you to help maintain but there is nothing to maintain? well talk to her and say maintain and then go back and say that your done but she says"that's it!,I gess were waisting our time" soo im stuck still! '
Everyone keeps telling people the wrong answer!!! It is so annoying; what you have to do is get gold in paragliding and that goal for 'Maintain the highlands' will disappear but first you must:
- Help sims by completing tasks eg. some sims ask for a chocolate cake, or a picture of something. This will get your star level up and unlock the mountain.
- Then complete the mountain tasks, until she introduces paragliding in the mountain as well as in the highlands.
- Then go back to Marie in the Highlands (the paragliding women) and get gold in paragliding.
It took me a while to get gold but here are some tips I realised made it easier on the way.
Paragliding tips
- Collect all of the blues gems one after the other in a chain, and don't miss one out. This will then allow you to get purple gems. Then do the same with the purple, and it will introduce dark pink gems. Do the same again and it will show gold gems. Each colour is worth more points, therefore you will get gold quicker.
- Another good tip, is to stay at the top of the screen and not to collect gems. Only collect the ones at the top and your more likely not to get hit by a bird because you get 10 points for every metre you go.
To get the gold medal you must earn 22000 points.
Hope this helped.

How do you get the goodness if sweetcorn doesn't break down in the body?
The kernel doesnt break down but the corn inside does. Your body digests the inside, and cannot digest the outside. You still get the nutritional value of the corn.
What does it mean if your partner says 'It's not working'?
One thing it does show you is this person who said it to you has #1 limited speech, #2 is non-communicative (a fault) and #3 immature. It's a good thing you find out now than later. "It's not working" just means this person feels the relationship is not working out and they aren't happy. It probably isn't anything you did wrong at all, but being attracted to someone is all about chemistry. Some people can fall madly in love with a person, and a few months down the road fall out of love with them. These people are "in love with love" and know very little about what love really is. It's egotistical and their life and especially their feelings are all about themselves.
Consider yourself lucky, hold your head high, and say, "You know, something has been bothering me about our relationship and I wasn't quite sure what it was. Thanks for clearing it up." Keep walking, because there is someone special out there for you.
Good luckMarcy
AnswerThanks Marcy,I dated this girl for 5 months. It was a blind date. I thought that things were going wonderfully. She introduced me to her parents after a month of dating and said that they loved me. Went on holiday in July and she asked me questions about my past and ex etc. I asked her and she told me she has dated a few guys since her long term relationship. Her long term ex went and got married to someone else. I asked how did they split up and she said that they didn't really split up "confused" what does that mean? Her ex is married and lives in another country... I said are you over him and she said yes. She also said that she gives her boyfriends a six month trial period??? In mid July she said that she wanted a relationship not just based on sex. So I said I can respect that. We didn't sleep with each other for over a month and we just went out. Then at a family firend of her dad's wedding reception we stayed at a hotel room togather and got intimate and thought things were fine. A few days down the line before she was due to go on holiday with her parents I called her and she said this isn't working, that Iam not confident enough and too predictable. It was left at that when I called her in the evening and asked if we were going to meet up. She said yes and then said yeah this isn't working and I reacted and said you are right and that you are cut up over your ex and cannot have a meaningful relationship. So she said is that good bye and I said yes.. Confused. I called her after 1 month and she talked to me saying that what she said was constructive criticisum so that I should be better aware for my future relationships and said that I had relly hurt her and she cannot forgive me or can ever be friends.. I guess that's the end of it. But this has left me confused as I did say to her why she didn't tell me this earlier on as you know if you like someone or not in a couple of months of going out with them?
AnswerHi thereMy pleasure! I know you're hurting, but now that you have explained more, guess what ... it is she that has the problem and not you! She is the one that's immature, confused and selfish. She is playing one man against the other and here's something else ... she has zero confidence about herself because she could fight for her ex, not involved you without any respect for your feelings. I'm very proud of you for standing your ground and I hope I don't offend you by saying ... you're one great guy, there is nothing wrong with you and there is a special girl out there for you and she'll be lucky to go through life with someone like you.
Kick this girl to the curb and let her drift through life. The old saying, "the head of the snake always bites you in the butt" is going to be so true for her. She is playing with fire. The other guy is married, she is playing head games with you. Of course she has left you confused because she has managed to have you believe it's all your fault, when in reality it's hers!
I was married at 22 to a guy my family and friends didn't like and warned me about. Of course I thought I could change him, but deep down I knew I couldn't. He loved women and obviously I wasn't enough for him, so one day (just like you) I'd had enough and after being silly enough to marry him, I left. I was scared, heart-broken and felt guilty as if it were my fault. It took me six months after I started living on my own to realize it wasn't my fault at all and I had no control over his actions, but I sure had control over my own destiny. Thank God, I got out of that mess, because a year later I met my wonderful husband and we have been married for 33 years. If I hadn't gone through that heartache I wouldn't have gone down the path I did and met my husband. I know this will happen to you as well.
So proud of you and I really wish you the very best of luck finding that special girl soon. I know she's out there.
Stay strong & good luckMarcy
AnswerThank you again Marcy,I didn't think of it like what you have described her mentality as. That really she is the one with the issues and zero confidence and I now realise that she is playing head games and playing one man against the other. It's a shame that there are people like her out there. They should be banned from dating or maybe they should introduce a dating passport with history of past relationships on record so that it weeds out people like that.
The thing I could not understand is that her ex got married 3 years ago and lives in another country Kenya about 3000 miles away from the UK. But she still keeps in touch with him over the phone. She did tell me that he doesn't like her to go out with other men but he can't do much about it. So now I get it!!! she tries to make him Jealous by having relationships and hopes that one day he gets back with her... She is 31 years old and not a kid or anything special to look at.
You didn't offend me by saying I am a great guy. Thank you. But I kind of wonder if being a great guy is a liability in life as you then are an easy target for girls like her and it seems all the bastards always get what they want. But hey that's life..
You are so right. Kick her to the kerb and let her drift through life. Move on.
Thanks again for all your advice and you are a great source of help. Whish I knew about your website when I was dating her. I would have moved on much quicker : )
How many lobes are in the liver of a shark?
5 because the shark is blood thirsty and wants to eat you alive. Watch out when you are on a beach. He is waiting and waiting for his kill.
Where is the exact location of the liver?
The exact location of the liver is in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen, just under the diaphragm, above the right kidney and gallbladder. Most people cannot feel their liver because it is underneath the lower part of the right ribcage.
Why does grinding liver increase the rate of enzyme activity?
The grammar of your question is very confusing, please revise; will attempt to answer to the best of my abilities:
The liver is where enzymes are produced and stored in the human body, but the liver has several other functions than producing/storing enzymes, such as detoxification, synthesis, and breakdown of various things.
Dandelion is known as a liver tonic. Utilizing the leaves, or making dandelion coffee from the roots are the most effective. It is used by many to do a thorough 'spring cleaning' of the body as well.
The leaves can be eaten on sandwiches or in salads. They provide a wide variety of nutrients, just make sure if harvesting them yourself to get young leaves, as older ones can be bitter.
For Dandelion coffee: Wash the roots, slice lengthwise in half, and then air dry for several days. Cut into one-inch sections, then roast on a baking sheet at 375˚F for two to four hours. Turn them regularly so that they brown evenly. Your kitchen should be smelling almost like you are brewing a pot of coffee when they are done. Grind as needed, and use in place of coffee beans. Yummy and MUCH healthier for you.
Other recommendations for liver trouble: Skip the animal fats. Your liver works 3 times as hard processing these. Minimize other fats as well, and stay with the healthy ones, like olive oil.
Another simple liver boost: Every morning, before breakfast, drink one cup of room temperature water with the juice of half a lemon. You liver will thank you for it;-)
What signals the liver to store or release glucose?
Glucagon is a hormone created by the pancreas that signals the liver to release glucose when the blood sugar level is dangerously low by converting glycogen (glucose converted for long term "storage") into glucose in the process known as glycogenolysis. Insulin is the hormone created by the pancreas that tells the liver to convert excess glucose into glycogen when the blood sugar level is high in the process known as glycogenesis.
